- eviks 3y agoBut they don't "fundamentally" look different, it's font dependent(there are fonts where they look the same), just like the same Latin k will look different depending on a font, so you need a better rule to make your own simple Unicode
- Joker_vD 3y agoHe's probably the guy who decided to add fraktur/double-strike/sans-serif/small-caps/bold/script/etc variants of Latin letters to the Unicode because, you know, they look different! so they should get their own special code points. It was a joke, by the way.
- allarm 3y agoThe capitalized "K" and "К" look exactly the same though.
- pavel_lishin 3y agoNot in my font!
- josephcsible 3y agoWhen I look at your post, in "K", the lower diagonal line branches off of the upper diagonal line, slightly breaking horizonal symmetry, but "К" is horizontally symmetrical.
- loa_in_ 3y agoThe latter glyph has a little bend on the top diagonal part
- rat87 3y agoWhat about Cyrillic T: Т? It looks the same uppercase (but not lowercase. And in italic/cursive, which I believe is not encoded in Unicode, it looks sort of like an m).
